parently came from the south side OF
che road, and some distance from the
vest of the bridge and all convergine
towards one object on the approaeh Of
ahe bridge, from which came respOn-
dge shot. After those three shot

ling heard. ! judge that those shot
we're directly opposite where | after
wards found Galnbrell dying on the
Sidewalk.
This morning / took my position
ust opposite where Gambrell was and
at the very position where saw those
flashes. ] was a little south of the
middle of the road just where thenorth
track of the street railway is. and tll0st
sthree flashes seemed to come from
abOut the middle of the road. From
1.-THE position11 occupied on the gallery
4 that night could see about SO much
aot tile road as / had seen of those
flashes. This was, l presume, because
the flashes were cut of by the wester-
most corner of Mr.. Mcdonald :
foundry.
S Question. do you think it possible
for such three flashes to be fired from
same pistol"
Answer. II do not think they could
have been from the same pistol. ] do
mot think they were III the same posi-
ti0n. The shots seemed not to be
6parall ], but all c0nverging towards
8the same object. Flashes seemed to
bea yard or yard andTa half apart.

Fin three hands-those three We're in
sthe road OH the west side fifteen or
EstWehty 1eet from the bridge. The loud
Sor double shot seemed to come from
the west end of the bridge from d
sdifferent direction from that, from
(which the three previous shots were
tired-it seemed to come from the
Abridge or the approach on which Mr..
&Gambrell was lying, but ] could not
stell at what object it was fired. j do
2n0t think | saw that flash at all.
Previous to that | had seen four

g Question. "NVas the moon shining

#off my view from more than one-halt
Sthe road bed. After that double shot
Swas fired | walked up there and found
SdirectIy opposite where / saw those
FLASHES Gambrell lying with his head
IA little to the northwest, saw several
gparties there, among others Mr.. Carra7
away, and | believe Mr.. Fitzgerald cane
@out apparently tying his shoe at thtI
agate. saw DIR. Heaphy's door pushed
ito, and there seemed to be one or two
8parties standing 'round tile door.

4 | saw two men, one going from the
sidewalk by Heaphy'S store diagonallyI

aminutes before going eastward.
Questions. DO you remember thes
names O. the persons you saw standingE
s0ver lle body Of Mr.. Ganlbrell?
AnsM er. | do not remember theg
anames Of any except Mr.. Carraway.
Cues. Did you see Mr.. AlbrechI.
Ans. No sir, not then. As | wasl

shouse immediately after the firing
athat is / suppose it took NE about al
sninute to get to the body and stayed
5there about II minute.
Question. What direction did youS
ssay the double shot came from. AM

1.-The east to the west. 1t must lIaveE
sbeen on the same approach to the
sbridge that Gambrell was. There's
WAS simply perceptible interval be-
tween that and those three convergings
sshots. There was the first shot, thenE
the cry OF murder, then some shots ID
scould not see, then three convergingk
shots from the middle Of the road to-
wards the approach, and then lastly aS
Single shot.
